Teachers and Bumper Stickers
Boy this board really veered off it's original subject. I think teachers should be allowed to do anything they want on their own time, as long as it doesn't affect their performance on the job. That gay teacher can be gay on her own time. On school time she is nothing. It's irrelevent. Now if that teacher wants to go around campus waving a rainbow flag, I'd tell her to knock it off. That's not why she's there. She's there to teach. And if the bumper sticker caused problems at school, I'd tell her to take it off, or drive a different car to work. As for the rudeness of people, and the seeming loss of standards of conduct, I chalk it up to one thing. Stupid people. Most smart people know how to behave. But stupid people have bad judgement. And there are more and more stupid people in this society, all with the attitude that they can do whatever they want, and "you're not their mother" so you can't tell them otherwise. It's only going to get worse.— January 2, 2009 1:55 a.m.
Favorite Few
This whole list is typical arty-critic crap. Just because most of the mainstream big release movies are pablum for idiots doesn't mean movies I've never heard of, because nobody backed them, are better. Most movies that get very limited releases do so because they have very limited audiences. How about a list for the rest of us who just like good movies? You mentioned a few. Dark Knight, Burn After Reading, Appaloosa and The Visitor were all solid. Cloverfield was as good as it could be with that irritating hand held camera. But Happy Go Lucky was disappointing. There just wasn't much there. But what about Benjamin Button, Transsiberia, Tell No One, Slumdog Millionaire, and Bolt (better than Wall-e).— January 2, 2009 1:30 a.m.

Judging Teachers
The standard should be that what a teacher (or anyone else) does in their personal life has nothing to do with their job. As long as the teacher doesn't bring it to work, and does their job in a professional way, they can be a transvestite mud wrestler for all I care. As soon as we start making moral judgements about other people, it's a slippery slope.— December 13, 2008 12:47 p.m.
SDPD -- Got An Attitude?
Critical Mass m-f'ers deserve whatever they get. I ride a bike and if I ever get hit by a car, I'm going to blame them for turning every driver AGAINST bicyclists, instead of, as they would have you believe, trying to get people out of their cars. They're trouble-making a**holes.— December 8, 2008 4:18 p.m.
Strangers Have the Best Candy
I've heard of blaming it on the dog, but not on the little girl. Maybe he was mad because she beat him at horse. Good thing you didn't play her. More humiliation.— November 27, 2008 2:43 p.m.
What's the best/worst pickup line you've heard?
I remember the best response to a response to a pickup line. A friend asked a girl to dance. She looked at him, and said "not with you" in a sneery voice, at which point he said "you shouldn't be so picky. I wasn't" Classic.— November 27, 2008 2:31 p.m.
